SUMMARY REPORT<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Conduct</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Kozloduy</strong> <strong>NPP</strong><br />

<strong>Stress</strong> <strong>Tests</strong><br />

5.3.3 Loss <strong>of</strong> ultimate heat sink<br />

5.3.3.1 Design bases to remove heat to main ultimate heat sink<br />

Decay heat removal from spent fuel in SFP-3,4 is provided from SFP cooling systems.<br />

Through the heat exchangers <strong>of</strong> these systems, heat is transferred to service water system <strong>for</strong><br />

cooling <strong>of</strong> safety system consumers. After cooling, due to steaming in the spray pools, water is<br />

delivered back to the cold channel.<br />

5.3.3.2 Loss <strong>of</strong> main ultimate heat sink<br />

Alternative way to remove heat from SFP is usage <strong>of</strong> – as the ultimate heat sink – cooling<br />

water from the inlet chamber be<strong>for</strong>e CPS, as supplied by the diesel-pumps, located in FPS-2, to the<br />

heat exchangers <strong>for</strong> SFP cooling.<br />

If it is impossible to remove heat via normal scheme, this may be provided due to steaming<br />

from water surface. To replenish <strong>for</strong> loss due to steaming, two possibilities are envisioned: with<br />

SFP filling pump – from the tank-sump (EMT) or other tanks and with diesel-pumps <strong>of</strong> FPS-2 from<br />

the cold channel.<br />

There are many alternative ways to remove heat from SFP (described in emergency<br />

procedures), which are ensured with independent power supply (electric or with diesel motor) and<br />

with diverse water sources. Due to that at loss <strong>of</strong> main ultimate heat sink, loss <strong>of</strong> safety function<br />

„Heat removal from the spent fuel stored in the reactor building but outside to the reactor” is not<br />

expected.<br />

5.3.3.3 Loss <strong>of</strong> ultimate heat sink and loss <strong>of</strong> alternative heat sink<br />

Times to occurrence <strong>of</strong> main events at complete loss <strong>of</strong> all the possibilities <strong>for</strong> cooling and<br />

filling <strong>of</strong> SFP-3,4 be<strong>for</strong>e uncoverage <strong>of</strong> fuel assemblies stored in the pools are the same, as at<br />

complete loss <strong>of</strong> AC sources.<br />

5.3.3.4 Loss <strong>of</strong> ultimate heat sink, in combination with station blackout (i.e. loss <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>f-site<br />

and emergency power supply at the site)<br />

Times to occurrence <strong>of</strong> the main events are the same, as at complete loss <strong>of</strong> AC sources.<br />

5.3.4 Measures to improve robustness to loss <strong>of</strong> ultimate heat sink<br />

In relation with SFP-3 and SFP-4 no measures are required to enhance robustness to loss <strong>of</strong><br />

ultimate heat sink.<br />
